Dreaming of Saichi My Long-Deceased Disciple

                                             I met you again after more than twenty years,
                                             On a rickety bridge, beneath the hazy moon, in the spring wind.
                                             We walked on and on, arm in arm, talking and talking,
                                             Until suddenly we were in front of Hachiman Shrine!
